You have any idea how picky they are during inspections and map track day?

 

yea??..just as strict as any other track. he blew 3rd gear out.

 

motor cant drip any fluids and you need a catch can rite?

 

that i am unsure of. my buddy who ran his balt (he ran a 13.02) with a tune,intake,IC pipes exhaust blah blah. you need a battery tie down which it is from the factory. helmet (DOT approved i think) you need to be wearing a long sleeve and pants. thats all i can think of off the top of my head

 

oh and my buddy never had a catch can.

i am familiar with rockfalls raceway out in wisconsin. all the hondas and **** out there had to have leaked some oil. if your guna break into the 10's or 11's i think you need a roll cage lol

 

so i think i'm pretty close to having all the parts i need to rebuild this dumb car... please chime in if i need anything more than this...

wiseco pistons w/ stock characteristics
eagle rods
all girdle bolts
arp head studs
arp flywheel bolts
new timing set
dual pass endplate
2.8" pulley
oversized tensioner pulley
rear main seal
front main seal
intake manifold gasket
all exhaust gaskets
new downpipe
valve cover gasket
timing cover gasket
exedy lightweight flywheel
exedy stage 2 clutch

still waiting to buy rod and main bearings and injectors. will need a new fuel pump, walbro 250, right?

 

im on stock pump but its not a bad idea to change it or add a rewire kit from zzp to it. Also id keep the stock flywheel.

 

Yeah I guess all they can say is no. I have a 2005 helmet so im good on that.

 

Why should I keep stock flywheel after i put 240 into buying the new one

 

i know when i put a clutch in my car im getting a NEW stock fly wheel

 

i think i'll be good to go with the lightweight one. that's why i'm getting the whole crank and components balanced before i put it in

 

i remember my buddies cavalier had a light weight fly wheel and it was sooo crazy. it felt like there was nothing there. i would push the pedal in and it seemed like the pedal wouldnt come back lol

 

well how often did you drive it? that's almost the same story on driving another car that has a stick. feel of the car is much different than the feel of yours. once you get used to it though, you're fine

 

it was my buddies car but i always drove that thing. a lowered gutted cavy was a blast to drive.

he said after he installed the clutch/fly wheel when he had the A/C on when he would come to a stop it would die...

isnt it like 300 for the light weight fly wheel?

 

it shouldnt be about the money. do you daily this car or atleast plan to?

 

well it's not about the money. at this point, it's just me putting money into it. but if someone's telling me i shouldn't have spent the money, i'd like to get a legitimate reason why i shouldn't have. i daily my car when it's running. i never run my AC, so that's a plus. and everytime i come to a stop, i downshift instead of 100% brake. and yes i got it for like 240-260 brand new from jdmpartswholesale whatever their price is

 

What exedy clutch did you get as in puck? I have the 3 puck and a stock flywheel I almost kill it quite often on a stock flywheel and i have to try to slip it or it engages kinda harsh. I just think its going to be super easy to kill and get going from a stop with a lighter rotating mass.

 

3 puck also. we'll see how it goes. i heard i'll have to bloop the gas and then let it go. i ride the clutch a bit by habit. worst case scenario, i'll replace it later on. but i'm not going to sell it right now

 

I hear ya, i still stall my car almost every day I drive it.

 

So does my list look good? Also.. should i go with gm replacement bearings or clevites? Is there much of a difference?

 

I did the clevites, there not too much. I dont know about differences.

 

i was more talking about the main bearings. clevite is like 230 bucks where stock is like <50

 

I got stock in mine.

 

awesome, more money for other stuff. just bought some 80's

 

do you have the motor out yet?
